WEEKDAY HOLY COMMUNION
Our Wednesday morning communion has been suspended during the Interregnum..
FORTHCOMING SOCIAL EVENTS AND DATES
8am SUNDAY SERVICE – During the Interregnum the 8am Sunday communion service will only be on the first Sunday of the month.
MIDWEEK COMMUNION - During the Interregnum there will be NO Wednesday 10 am service. Have you spotted the mistake? That is, the one in the April/May edition of The Keston Magazine. An extra service for 19th April has been listed and there isn't one! Apologies from Sally.
KESTON KRAFTERS – Do you enjoy craft making? Come along to our sessions on the 3rd Thursday of the month on Thursday 18th May & 15th June @ 10am – 12 noon in the Keston Parish Church Hall. Do bring along your own art or craft project, or join in with trying a new one. Cost will be £3 per session + craft workshop materials on the day, which will include coffee/tea and biscuits.
HEALING & WHOLENESS (H&W) - Every 3rd Sunday, we offer healing and wholeness prayers for all who may like the benefit of a special prayer, just after taking Communion, in the foyer. Dates are Sundays and 21st May & 18th June At these services we will also serve non-alcoholic grape juice to open the sacrament up to all our worshippers, especially those allergic to alcohol.
MEDITATION GROUP – Every 3rd Monday – 15th May & 19th June. We begin at 7.30 pm in the Church or church hall. All are very welcome, to take time out from our busy lives.
NEXT MESSY CHURCH – Tuesday 18th July from 3.30 pm – 6 pm for craft, worship and a lovely high tea with home made cakes! All welcome!
PUB SOCIALS – Our next Pub social will be on Wednesday 7th June at the King’s Arms, Leaves Green; then Tuesday 25th July @ The Greyhound; Wednesday 30th August @ The Fox and Tuesday 17th October @ The Crown @ 7.30 pm. Please do come along – all are very welcome!
COUNTRYSIDE DAY – Sunday 25th June 2 – 5 pm on the Common opposite the Greyhound. We have some volunteers helping on the stall, but we would like more!
CELEBRATING 25 YEARS OF OUR CHURCH HALL
Please keep the weekend of 10th/11th June free for lots of fun while we celebrate the 25th Anniversary of our Church Hall. There will be an art exhibition; flower exhibition celebrating 25 years; bottle tombola; items for sale; Church quiz sheet; Lucky dip for dogs, with the winner having their dog’s photograph in the magazine; and “A celebration in Song” sing-along with all our favourite celebration songs. We will also be serving refreshments during the weekend. Please see the sign up sheets if you can help in any way.
TOILET TWINNING – Thank you to everyone who contributed towards the Toilet Twinning – we have helped build a latrine and offered health education to 2 villages – one in the Democratic Republic of Congo and one in Uganda. So 1 certificate will be going up in the Ladies and 1 in the gents!
REMEMBER to use your Village Store – Please be sure to visit and buy from Keston Village Shop, their range has increased and is very extensive. Please do pop in and buy, it is so convenient and as the old saying goes – use it or loose it!
SAVE THE DATES!
Our next
Do come and
join us on the first Sunday of each month for our new Family Worship service at 10am. The service is designed as an All-age
